Changing sounds within the Keyboard Synthesizer?
Lets say I've got a piece with a keyboard synth and I want to switch from a warm pad sound to a grand piano? Is there a way to change this like one would change between a muted and regular trumpet? I know this can be done manually but as far as I know it can't be set up to be done at a certain point in the piece.

I believe that this can be done by setting up a custom instrument in the instruments.xml file.
I am not sure of the details howeer.

The way I'd go about it is looking at how it is done for trumpet in that file, then setting up the definition of the keyboard to do the same. There is also this "how to" article: http://musescore.org/en/node/15803
Another solution that doesn't rewuire customizing instruments.xml is to use two separate instruments, and the Hide Empty Staves option so you only see one at a time.
